From Within By Fesal   Chapter 5: On the Run "What are you doing with your hand in your pocket?" Enazz asked me. "Checking to see if your family jewels are damaged?" "Nah, I'm just looking for my ciggies." I fished out some Dunhills, lit one and took a deep drag. The universe is full of mysteries but one thing is certain: when things are down, nothing beats the feeling of smoking a good cigarette. The situation had worsened. Far more than what i ever expected. I was chosen to single handedly save the universe from an evil as old as Barry Manilow. That means that the evil was as old as time itself. "You know, things arounf here are really getting weird." Stats observed. "All this butt munching, its not right." "You're damned right," said Shah. "I almost got my arse chewed out and that bastard had the nerve to call me furry." "He he he. You are hairy," said Duke. "He he he. Macam Ewok. He he he. Yub-yub, Shah." "Kemmak Duke." Then Xylia pointed to the other tables. "Look at that, fellas!" It was an awesome sight. People were biting each others arses all over the place. Those that were bitten got up and bit others. It was, for want of a better word, contagious. Even the hawkers were getting into the act. Henry, upon recoving from his Stats-inflicted bout of unconsciousness, had bitten Ansari. Ansari then bit the blind beggars. The beggars in turn bit those who refused to give them money (and for variety, those that did.) We were shocked at the sight of what was happening. Such violence had not been seen since Taiwan's Parliament last presided. In other words, everything was going to hell on a silver platter. "Guys, this is getting too strange. All this arse biting is not normal," said Enazz. "Well, it is Saturday night. All the freaks come out on Saturdays," replied Shah. "We should have gone to Bangsar." "No," Fara joined in the discussion. "This is more than just a freak show. There's something ominous involved here. I can feel it." "You can feel it?" asked Xylia. "Just what the heck are you? A bloody Jedi Knight? Go back to singing George Micheal songs, woman!" "Hey, watch your mouth woman or I'll punch it in." "You just try it, Moffats Lover!" "Come on people," said Stats, trying to calm everyone down. "This is not a time to fall apart." "Stats," reasoned Fara. "I'll kick you in the nuts!" Things were definitely getting out of hand. I had to stop this cat fight. "Hey! Hey!" I yelled. "Fara's right. There is something evil involved here." "Uh huh," said everybody. "I'll tell you about it later. We have more pressing matters to attend to." I pointed towards the other tables. The entire crowd at Salleh's Place had become arse biting zombies. They were all in one group and they were headed in our direction. They also looked very hungry. "Is this the bit where Micheal Jackson starts to sing 'Thriller'?" asked Shah. "Fellas," I said. "I think we should get the crap out of here." "Where?" "The parking lot. Im drawn there." "Oh, better to be run over by zombies driving cars than having our arses chomped out eh? Great idea, you dumbass." "Don't think, just RUN goddamnit!" The zombies lunged towards us so we just ran the hell out of there. As we ran to the parking lot, it became clear to us that the whole of uptown was zombified. We reached the parking lot and headed for the lowest level. Crap! the zombies were there too. "We're doomed," said Xylia. "There goes lah," said Stats. "Wait, head towards that door," said Shah. And so we did. Luck was obviously on our side as the door was unlocked. We bolted in and locked the door. "Phewh, that was close," I said "Yeah," said Duke. "Very close." "Hmm, you know what?" asked Stats. "I dont think I ever noticed a room here before." It was then that we heard that strange sound. It was a single sound and it was repetitive. "Tit tot tit tot tit tot tit tot tit tot" "We're so screwed," said Xylia.
